My friends and I loved this experience. Francesca was amazing. She is funny, kind, and full of spirit. She made this experience feel like it was a bunch of friends getting together. I feel confident that I go home and make fresh pasta. The aperitivo along with our fresh pasta topped off a great time! Would highly recommend this experience if you love food, culture, and learning.

No trip to Italy is complete without a pasta cooking class and this one in San Gimignano is truly special with the best host and views! Francesca was super warm and welcoming and really breaks down how to make pasta in a way that is easy for everyone. 10/10 would recommend!

Expérience magique et gourmande.
Francesca est très prévenante et accueillante et a su nous plonger dans l’univers culinaire des pâtes italiennes. Un lieu également incroyable, en face de San Gimignano.
Nous recommandons sans réserve aucune !

We had such an amazing time! We went as a group of 6 girls and it felt like we were being welcomed as friends into Francesca and Mauro’s home. Such a fun experience in a magical location just outside of San Gimignano. We were able to easily walk there from the centre of town. We appreciated how kind and funny they were. We were offered a lot of delicious food and wine, and loved it all! Thank you for your hospitality and such a great experience.
